Out with the Old

This past week at work has been a lot of new things for me. A new group to work with, a new room to work in, two new co-teachers to work with closely, a new shift, and a new set of responsibilites due to that shift. Oh, and a new time to be getting up as a result of the new shift. I am now starting work at 7:15 AM. I used to get up at that time for the past year with having all later shifts!

My body will probably get used to the new time of getting up (which is 5:00 AM), but for now it is rebelling. It is a big struggle to get up and not hit the SNOOZE button and crawl back into bed for a few more ZZZZ's. And yes, I am going to bed much earlier than I was before, usually I am dog-tired by 9:30 PM and head for bed then!

And yes, there are children at the Centre who arrive at 7:00 AM, which is when we open, so they have much the same schedule as I do for getting up because a lot of them also have the public transit system as their means of getting places.
